Gypsum-based machine plaster is a versatile material used for coating walls and ceilings, particularly in Europe. It can be applied efficiently in one layer, making it a popular choice for continuous plastering work. When used with a mechanical mortar sprayer, it can save time and money. Lightweight gypsum machine plaster, which has excellent thermal insulation properties, has gained popularity in recent years. YibangCell® cellulose ether offers a range of unique properties, such as workability, pumpability, sag resistance, and water retention, making it a valuable additive for gypsum machine plaster.

Advantages Of Cellulose Ether In Gypsum Machine Plaster
1. Water retention: maximising the water content in the slurry ensures complete gypsum concretion.
2. Anti-sagging: when spreading a thicker coat corrugation can be avoided ( careful when air is entrained).
3. Increased Mortar Production: depending on the weight of the dry mixture and the proper formulation of the HPMC, the volume of the mortar can be increased.
